Abstract:
I seek to understand the motivations and challenges of pastoralists to take action that impacts the environment near Gishwati National Park, Rwanda. My objective this summer is to build on this previous work, focusing on conceiving a strategy to transform perceptions and, disseminate vital knowledge about tree planting among pastoralists and developing an approach to overcome the identified tree planting and maintenance challenges.
